<p>Hi Matthew! I hope you are doing well!</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Here are some of my thoughts below. If you're talking about Cisco TelePresence in context of a generalized technology, you're really talking about quite a few different applications. My suggestion would be to start with the fundamentals book referenced below,
if you're completely new to video. If you have a solid grasp on video, I would start with Cisco TelePresence Management (TMS) and work to understand that first, the next thing I would learn is TelePresenece Content Server (TCS) and then TelePresence Conductor,
CMR (the A2Q process alone can be a mind-bending experience) ... etc. I would save VCS/Expressway until the end of the education journey.

<li>Cisco dCloud's (<a href="http://dcloud.cisco.com">http://dcloud.cisco.com</a>) "Cisco Preferred Architecture for Video 10.6 v1" is a great content session to get some the products spun-up in 15 or so minutes. Admittedly, this works best if you have a couple
of video endpoints (9971 .. etc) and a spare router so you can connect your phones to their cloud. Although, if you just wanted to look at some of the servers and familiarize yourself with the GUI ... etc, you can use Anyconnect and a PC/Laptop

<li>Here is a CiscoPress book at Amazon called, "Cisco Telepresence Fundamentals" (if you're the reading type):
